'''Amphibious''' is derived from the Ancient [[Greek]] term "amphíbios" which means both kinds of life, amphi [[meaning]] "both" and bio meaning life. The term was initially used for all kinds of combined [[nature]]s. Eventually it was used to refer to [[animals]] that live both in the water and on land. | '''Amphibious''' is derived from the Ancient [[Greek]] term "amphíbios" which means both kinds of life, amphi [[meaning]] "both" and bio meaning life.
